Settling-In
Bringing a new plant home is exciting - but it’s also an adjustment period! Your plant may need a little time to adapt after shipping and a change in environment.
The Adjustment Period
Travel and new surroundings can be stressful for plants., It’s completely normal to see:
-
Minor leaf yellowing or drooping
-
Slight soil displacement
-
Minor cosmetic damage
-
A pause in new growth
Give your plant 2-3 weeks to settle before repotting or making big changes in light, soil, or water routine.
​
Light & Environment
Start your plant in a bright, indirect light location unless otherwise specified for its variety. Keep away from vents, drafts, or sudden temperature changes while it adjusts.
​
Watering
Resist the urge to water immediately unless the soil feels very dry. Many plants prefer to dry slightly between waterings - follow your plant’s care tips on our website for best results.
​
Patience Pays Off
With a little patience and gentle care, most plants bounce back beautifully after their journey. Remember, yellowing or a few lost leaves is part of the natural adjustment process. Focus on the new growth that follows - it’s a good sign your plant feels at home!
